摘要:
An X-ray target material comprising an oxide-dispersion strengthened Mo (ODS-Mo) alloy. ODS-Mo refers to molybdenum strengthened by a fine dispersion of insoluble oxide particles of one or more of the following compounds: La2O3, Y2O3 and CeO2. ODS—Mo alloy improves upon the prior art by providing higher and more uniform strength and creep resistance over the applicable temperature range of large brazed graphite targets. This, in conjunction with higher-strength graphite, allows the target to spin faster without causing graphite burst, thus providing improvement in peak power. The recrystallization temperature of the fabricated material is high enough to maintain original properties through all target processing, including a very high-temperature braze cycle.

An x-ray tube target assembly 16 provided. The target assembly 16 includes a target plate element 18 having an impact surface 24, a target rear surface 30, an inner target bore 22, and an outer target circumference 38. The target plate element 18 defines a target plate depth 32 between the impact surface 24 and the target rear surface 30. The target rear surface 30 is formed such that the target plate depth 32 tapers from an increased target plate depth 34 at the inner target bore to a decreased target plate depth 36 at the outer target circumference 38. The target assembly 16 further includes a graphite base element 28 having a base upper surface 42 and a base rear surface 44. The base upper surface 42 is formed to mate with the target rear surface 30.

An x-ray tube target assembly 16 is provided. The assembly 16 includes a target disc element 18 having a target bore 22. A target shaft 20 transmits rotational drive to the target disc element 18. The target shaft 20 includes a plurality of axial adjustment slots 30 formed in an upper portion. The plurality of axial adjustment slots 30 are positioned around the target shaft 20 to form a plurality of partial circumferential ribs 36. The plurality of partial circumferential ribs 36 are brazed to the target bore 22.

A clip for a motor stator housing to engage at least a first magnet and at least a second magnet of the motor stator includes a generally annular plate having an outer circumferential edge and an inner side. A plurality of outer tabs are radially arranged on the outer circumferential edge and extend outward relative to the outer circumferential edge, wherein the outer tabs engage an inner surface of the stator housing. At least a pair of first inner tabs extend outward from the inner side of the annular plate and are configured to engage opposing sidewalls of the first magnet. At least a pair of second inner tabs extend outward from the inner side of the annular plate and are configured to engage opposing sidewalls of the second magnet.

An anode assembly (50) includes a thermally conductive bearing encasement (52) covering a portion of a bearing (64). An anode (56) rotates on the bearing (64) and has a target (58) with an associated focal spot (60). The thermally conductive bearing encasement (52) is configured and expansion limited to prevent displacement of the focal spot (60) of greater than a predetermined displacement during operation of the anode (56).

A method and apparatus for controlling the tilting of the sample stage of an electron microscope along X and Y axes are disclosed. A plurality of different orientations are displayed stereoscopically on a monitor with a spot representing the current orientation being highlighted. The control signals which cause the sample to tilt are generated by moving a cursor on the stereoscopic projection.

A slotted window collector assembly for an x-ray tube having an anode and a cathode includes a collector having an anode side and a cathode side, which opposes the anode side. The anode side and the cathode side define an internal bore there between for receiving x-rays from the anode. The slotted collector further includes a window side common to both the anode side and the cathode side and having a window coupled thereto, wherein a window aperture is defined extending from the window to the internal bore. Within the collector assembly, a slot is defined intersecting the window aperture and extending trans-axially thereto and beyond a set length. The slot also extends circumferentially with the window such that plastic strain on the window and heat transferred to the window are reduced.
